"It’s so beautiful, isn’t it? I could send you a Red Rose to tell you of my love and respect for you. I could send you a Yellow Rose to let you know what joy your friendship brings me. I could send you a Pink Rose to thank you for being so kind to me. I could send you a White Rose to tell you just how much I like your simplicity and gentleness. But instead I am sending you a Blue Rose to tell you what a rare and unique person you are. And to let you know how special you are to me." ~Anon

Okay, if many of you have gmail, then you'd know about the new Buzz thing and (if you have my email address) what I've been doing. I've been posting the songs for the military, and I decided to post them on here. And seeing that I have been and Army brat, it seems only fitting to do Army first!! :) Don't worry, I'll post all of them. Tell me what military part you're in or you like!! Here's Army....in honor of my father: SSG (E-6) Darrell K. Hamelund and brother: PV2 Nathan S. Hamelund (who graduates in a week!!!!). Love you both!!!

March along, sing our song, with the Army of the free,Count the brave, count the true who have fought to victoryWe're the Army and proud of our nameWe're the Army and proudly proclaim

First to fight for the right,And to build the nations might,And the Army goes rolling alongProud of all we have done,Fighting till the battle's won,And the Army goes rolling along.

Then it's Hi! Hi! Hey!The Army's on it's way.Count off the cadence loud and strong(TWO! THREE!)For where e'er we goYou will always knowThat the Army goes rolling along.

Hey y'all!! Today for Thoughtful Thursday, I want y'all to, if you have one or the other, tag or award a friend's blog who isn't very popular. I'm sure they'd like that. If you don't' have that then go to a friend's blog and leave an encouraging comment, like if the friend isn't feeling well, or is down, or just lost a loved one. Ya know what I mean? Well, try to do that. Now, Ready? Set? Go!!!

I am now publishing all comments, so feel free to comment if you want!!! :D

Hey y'all!!! Have you ever followed a blog that later on you thought was a very bad mistake?? I don't think I have, well except for two which I'll keep anonymous. Well, here's your help!!! :) The first thing you do is sign into your account, then on the blogger dashboard scroll down to the list of blogs you're following, next hit the "manage" button (that's right beneath the list of blogs), it'll show you the whole list. Next step: when you're on the page, it'll list the blog name and address, then it'll say "Settings", then you hit that. A new window will pop up and then there will be a button saying, "Stop following this site", and you hit that. There ya go! Please tell me if it worked!

Hey y'all! This is my new idea...lets see if I can keep it!! :) To start off the Thoughtful Thursday this is what I want y'all to do... Go to someone's blog (example: someone who doesn't have a lot of followers, someone who rarely gets comments, soemone who just started a blog, someone that is your friend and you want to encourage them today, or someone's blog that you enjoy looking at, but aren't following) and leave a ENCOURAGING comment, it can be anybody's blog. Also, if you are not following it, maybe start following it. I don't care what y'all do, but keep it encouraging, I know I love to get encouraging comments. :) Hehe The minimum that I want you to do is two people, you can do more if you want! Hope y'all like this better than the poetry. :) Now, get started! :) Haha

Nope! I didn't win the pattern, oh well, I can live without it! :) Well, I just wanted to tell y'all that on Sunday afternoon we got a phone call. Guess who from??? .............................................. THAT'S RIGHT!!!! PV2 Nathan Scott Hamelund! He is doing very well, and he's very excited about next month, his graduation which is on the 12th. He said to me that he's been counting down the days till he gets home since the moment he got there! Haha! Well, that's all I wanted to say! Hope y'all had a wonderful weekend and Monday! I had a okay day at Good News Club, I have four kids in my group, and I LOVE them!!! I have second graders!!! They're very nice! Well, better go, my bedtime, school in the morning! UGH!!! =D

Howdy! I found this giveaway at Feminine Cowgirlthrough my friend Koda's blog! I saw this skirt and it's a giveaway!!! Isn't it cute???? All you have to do is go over to her blog and find out more! Good luck!

Howdy y'all I know! I totally missed Poetry Wednesday, I have been a bit busy! Lets see, updates: We got letters from Nathan on Monday, very encouraging! We also started GNC (for the new comers here: GNC is Good News Club) on Monday. I took over Issy's class since there were only THREE kids!!!! She decided that I was capable of three kids, and I am. Tuesday: I can't think of anything that we did that was long on there, a day of break! Wednesday: Well, of course we did school, mom and I watched a good movie afterward (that is like a exception to our rule: no movies on the weekdays, which is good, keeps us focused on our school), and then we had church. Now Thursday: I can only be on here for a little because, we just got back from gym, I have to study my presentation that's due tomorrow, I have to read a lot of my book "Amy Carmichael of Dohnauver", and I also have to do other stuff. Very busy! Well anyway, I'll post yesterday's poem right now. Oh the reason that I may not be able to put the tag on here, Sarah, is because our computer is being difficult, we have a new Internet thingy. Sorry! I'll try it when I have more time!

Howdy y'all! Well it's approaching! Next month we will be having our yearly Old Fashioned Day, and this year is Edwardian 1900s-1940s, but I pick Edwardian. I like their dresses they're so pretty!! I thought I would give y'all a pic of what it's gonna look like, and of course I'll post the real pics of it when the time comes! Also, this pic is NOT mine, I got it from the Sense and Sensibilty Patterns website (click name to go there). I just wanted to show y'all what it looked like! Bye!
